GNOSIS: the first instrument to use fibre Bragg gratings for OH suppression
Christopher Q. Trinh, Simon C. Ellis, Joss Bland-Hawthorn +20
GNOSIS is a prototype astrophotonic instrument that utilizes OH suppression fibres consisting of fibre Bragg gratings and photonic lanterns to suppress the 103 brightest atmospheri…
First Science with SAMI: A Serendipitously Discovered Galactic Wind in ESO 185-G031
Lisa M. R. Fogarty, Joss Bland-Hawthorn, Scott M. Croom +27
We present the first scientific results from the Sydney-AAO Multi-Object IFS (SAMI) at the Anglo-Australian Telescope. This unique instrument deploys 13 fused fibre bundles (hexabu…
'MOHAWK' : a 4000-fiber positioner for DESpec
Will Saunders, Greg Smith, James Gilbert +6
We present a concept for a 4000-fibre positioner for DESpec, based on the Echidna 'tilting spine' technology. The DESpec focal plane is 450mm across and curved, and the required pi…
Suppression of the near-infrared OH night sky lines with fibre Bragg gratings - first results
S. C. Ellis, J. Bland-Hawthorn, J. Lawrence +20
The background noise between 1 and 1.8 microns in ground-based instruments is dominated by atmospheric emission from hydroxyl molecules. We have built and commissioned a new instru…
